(2nd LD) Amnesty Int'l calls for probe on beef protest crackdown
By Kim Hyun
SEOUL, July 18 (Yonhap) -- Amnesty International on Friday criticized the South Korean government for using excessive force against people protesting against U.S. beef imports and called for an immediate investigation into allegations of human rights abuses.
Wrapping up a two-week inquiry into the government's handling of the months-long protests, the London-based rights watchdog called the candlelight rallies "an impressive tribute" to South Korean democracy.
